SALE AS LATE AS JUNE BRINGS $6,300 D. R. Funk Auction Explodes Theory Late Sales Are Unprofitable.

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN It Isn't always a good thing to be bound by custom and tradition, not even with reference to the month3 or seasons for holding farm sales of live stock. D. R. Funk, whose farm lies Beven miles northeast of Richmond, has given satisfactory proof of this truth, by holding a very profitable Bale of cattle, sheep and hogs In June, long after the "farm sale season" had supposedly closed, and when fanners are thought to be too busy to go a-buying. But why not offer live stock In early June? Why not buy live stock in June If you can feed profitably and have them pasture? Right now the grass is rich and" tender and all the summer and fall lie before us, in which the animals can put on weight at the minimum cost This was evidently Mr. Funk's view, so he came down to The ' Palladium office and told us about it. Well, Mr. Funk furnished the live stock and set the stage for action. His ad in The Palladium did the rest: It

provided buyers with money in every

to pocket Live Stock Exclusively. The sale on the D. R. Funk place on Wednesday afternoon was of livestock

exclusively. The offering included six

ty head of steer and heifer calves, a

few choice, fresh cows, fifty Shrop

shire-Delaine ewes and an equal num

ber of lambs, and thirty head of feeder hogs, among which were ten head

of full-blood Duroc pigs.

Among the cows which went under the hammer three or four brought up to $150, and every one sold "well," as to age and quality. Steers running from 40O up to about 600 pounds brought from $45 to possibly $60 for top, and. heifer calves from $40 to $57 as to weight and kind. The email offering of brood sows with pigs brought from $85 up to $120. Some buyers came from quite a distance and all were present with both a purse and a purpose. Sheep havo rot been bringing outside prices of late In any market but the spirited bidding for the ewes and lambs In this offering ran the figures up to a little over the "average," and prices paid ranged at from $13 to $15 per head. Sale Nets Over $6,200 Given in round numbers we are in

formed that the sale netted something

over b,uu, ana was practically a cash transaction. In this connection it may be said that many of the largest farm tales reported in these columns during several months were of this character, for all the buyers seemed to have" money. The former rule of giv

ing so much off from the bid price, for cash, has been largely abrogated at farm sale1?. The bid i3 "net" and the interest from date has been added on notes, with no discount for cash in

-y nana, sellers nave louna this to De Al the mof;t satisfactory method and it

Is one that will most HKeiy De louowea more than ever when the next sale season comes "round. The sale was engineered by Col. Tom Conniff and Simon Weddle as auctioneers, with Harry W. Gilbert, of the Second National bank as cashier. A cleanup was made in record time and all voted the Funk June sale a good one. A "good" sale, be it known, is a sale at which both buyer and seller are satisfied.

Th Cost of Mirk Inspection. The protection of our babies' milk supply is imperative, and milk Inspection should- be very rigid for securing sanitary conditions, but any further Inspection of feeds will be sure to add to the cost without bringing a single bit of additional protection to the dairy farmer, although the long-suffering city dweller will, as usual, be called upon to pay the bills.

ers club of New York state after a thorough discussion

of the sub ject, has agreed that the use of by-products from food manufacturing processes Is not only good practice if kept in the hands of men who recognize the wisdom of law observation but sound economy as well," says tho Hol-stein-Friesian World. "They have also agreed that any further inspection of feeds will be sure to add to the cost without bringing a single bit of addi

tional protection to the dairy farmer. There is no other article of commerce so wrapped up with laws and regulations as the feed mantf acturing business and while we hold no brief for the manufacturer of commercial feeds, we believe 4liat in the Interest of sound business they are just as much concerned In preserving a stable market tty offering the really valuable com-

merclal feeding mixtures at as low a price as is consistent with quality, as the dairy farmer Is In getting such rations for his cows." There was a time when every business man thought that to take an unfair advantage of the customer was shrewd business, but that time has long passed. All business Is now based on quality. A "snide" concern Boon goes to the wall. The organization of county farm bureaus tinder the direction of a county agricultural agent has done much to stabilize all lines of goods. It Is a significant fact that the very best feeds have the largest sales and every farmer knows which ones are economical. Poverty holds a mortgage on the man who can see nothing but the price, especially in feeds. He cannot cheat his dairy cows and get much milk-

An Interview With Today's Star Performer Reveals V Inconsistency Of Nature He was sitting on the branch of a tree looking very white, weak and feeble, as if he were just getting over a long illness. Behind him on the branch was a large, dark replica of himself, looking like his cast-off overcoat, which in fact it was. "I want you to put me right in the eyes of the world," he said in a feeble voice, much unlike the Bhrill song in which he would indulge as soon as hp was strong enough. "People have an idea I am some sort of destroying pest, because I and

my relatives descend upon 'em only once every seventeen years, and then we crowd in like relatives at county fair time." "Well," I asked, "why don't you distribute your visits over seventeen years, Instead of coming only once during that time, and in flocks?" "I don't know, stupid, any more than you do," answered the cicada in an injured tone. "Take my case. I was born seventeen years ago, and wasn't any bigger than a flea. The only natural thing seemed to be to get underground at once, so I did it, and got as far down as possible. Then I found a root, and lay there and ate from its Juices and Blept, until a few days ago, when something told me it was time to come but again. How did I know it had been seventeen years? "Then I got out shed my old coat and prepared to enjoy life for a few weeks, and people started talking like I and my relatives are some sort of destroying pest Simply because we swarm so. The only damage we ever do is that when we lay our eggs we shove 'em into cracks in the bark of young trees. That does not hurt the tree unless lots of us do it. Sometimes we kill one, but very seldom. "We don't have a very enjoyable life anyway. Seventeen years of sleep and then just a few weeks to enjoy the sunshine and sing. And the next generation hatches out and starts into the ground, and then we die. I think nature has cheated us somehow."
